Summary:
ZIP code 47527 in Indiana is served by two elementary schools, both part of the Northeast Dubois County School Corp: Northeast Dubois Elementary School, which covers grades PK–2 with 235 students, and Northeast Dubois Intermediate School, which covers grades 3–6 with 240 students — together enrolling about 475 children. The district as a whole ranks 70th of 374 in the state, placing it in the 81st percentile with 4 stars.
Most academic results come from the Intermediate school, since Indiana testing begins in grade 3. Its clearest strength is Math: all-grades Math was 60.99%, and every tested grade beat the state, including grade 3 at 70% versus the state's 51.9% and grade 6 at 57.78% versus 40.2%. Science and grade 5 Social Studies were also above state averages. English Language Arts is the weak spot — all-grades ELA was 37.22%, below the district's 40.71%, and grade 5 ELA was 31.11% versus the state's 42.2%. Year over year, grade 5 Social Studies rose 17.14 points while all-grades Science fell 10.85 points. The school's latest rank is 324 of 1,015 (68th percentile, 3 stars), down from 76th percentile and 4 stars in 2023–24.
Both campuses serve nearly identical free/reduced lunch populations (30.83% and 31.06%), yet resources differ: the PK–2 school spends $14,156 per student compared with $7,589 at the 3–6 school, and has a lower student-teacher ratio (15.1 versus 17.1). Attendance is a district-wide strength — chronic absenteeism is 5.1% at the elementary school and 6.5% at the intermediate school, both far below the state's 16.7%. The PK–2 campus has no recent test scores, which is expected for its grade levels.
